Common questions in Leyton Grange

I let a flat near Leyton Midland Road station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.

Do you take on hotel work around Leyton Grange?

Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.

What information do you need?

A short description and the location. We will ask anything else we need to know.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes. All our work carries a 12-month guarantee.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.

What does intumescent mean?

Intumescent means it swells when heated. Intumescent sealants are one kind of fire-rated sealant; the right one depends on the gap and what passes through it.

What fire rating will the seal have?

Ratings and certificates aren’t something we issue. What’s required is set by your assessor or designer, and the product’s tested details show what it achieves, and we install to them.

Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Leyton Grange

Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap, and we can record what went where. We work on linear gaps, service penetrations and door frames, and the jobs we see most are standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap and door frames with gaps between frame and wall.

London blocks of flats carry pipes and cables through walls and floors in their common parts and service risers. For managing agents and building owners in Leyton Grange, that can mean fire-rated sealant around service openings as well as resealing in shared washrooms and kitchens.

A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Why act early in Leyton Grange

Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. On its own, sealing it now is a small job and needn’t wait for anything else. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Dealing with it early is far simpler for homes in Leyton Grange.

Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:

  • The amount of work
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The type of sealant required
  • How many areas need sealing

The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

Helping us quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Roughly how big the job is

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.

How it works

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access and we leave things clean and tidy. In Leyton Grange, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.

  1. We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
  2. We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
  3. Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
  4. We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
  5. Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Getting a quote

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work before giving you a price.

Advice

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
  • Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
  • Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
  • Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable

Avoid covering a sealed gap with anything that isn’t part of the tested detail. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. We can tell you which product we used.

A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Closing it is usually a straightforward job.

When to call us in Leyton Grange

Buildings are refitted and reconfigured over the years. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.

People usually contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
  • Holes left by a change of layout
  • Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
  • Fire seals that have cracked with movement

Managing a site like Riverley Primary School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

What your quote should include

  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • How hidden problems are handled
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • How long the guarantee is

Choosing a sealant specialist

Fire rated sealant in Leyton Grange: local notes

Commercial buildings in London often have strict access rules and limited loading, so out-of-hours working can be arranged where needed. Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.

If you let a flat or house near Leyton Midland Road station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. Leyton Grange is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
